“They shouted insults at me.”
Location: 14th and N St. NW DC
Time: Morning Rush Hour (5am-9:30am)
I was walking to the gym in spandex and a tank top (not that it should matter) and heard a honk from behind me; I turned around and saw it was three guys in a trash truck honking at me. Iflicked (sic) them off (mature, I know) and then they slowed the truck down, holding up traffic on busy 14th, to crawl at my pace for a block and a half while they shouted insults at me. Not fun.
